I asked this on another forum, but there doesn't seem to be anyone home over there so I will try it here.
I don't have one to measure so I am going to ask the question. Is there enough meat in the walls of a Lyman .427 or.440 round ball mold to recut it to a 350-450gr .458 bullet for a 45/70?
I can't tell from pictures if there would be enough material between the mold cavity and the handle slots. Or to put it another way, what is the dimension across the slots on a RB mold?
